Like a dinner plate

Late June 2010, originally uploaded by Chiara and James Hemsley.

Norah's skirt looks flat like a dinner plate when she spins. That is what Oma told her, and that is what she tells me every time she spins around.

I asked Norah what she wanted to be when she grows up, and she whispered, very seriously, to me: "A ballerina"

I say it's either that or a singer at this point. She really likes both dancing and singing!
